Overview
The 30µm Diamond Lapping Film is designed for the critical polishing of fiber optic connector end faces. Proper polishing is essential for reducing back-reflection and signal loss, ensuring high-quality optical performance in telecommunications and data center environments.
These 3" x 6" sheets are color-coded in green for easy identification in multi-step polishing processes. The film features a 3 mil backing without pressure-sensitive adhesive (PSA), making it suitable for standard fiber optic polishing pucks and machine processes.
